My sense of confidence goes up when I have to explain CSS cascading and absolute vs relative units to back end devs, and their brains explode a little

Wait till they start using absolute positioning everywhere...then you’ll be the one to explode.

Dude no shit. Back when I started working I was mainly a backend dev, the advent of front end development awesomeness (or horror depending on who you ask) make me get into it seriously. I got mad respect for designers and front end devs and every time I get to work with a team that has dedicated designers and front end devs I buy them tacos every once in a while. In an era where you absolutely need to have design on point you most def want to keep designers and front end devs happy! Shit is hard af and this is comming from someone that does backend in many different stacks

@AleCx04 I really appreciate your sentiment on this! So often I feel like there’s this unspoken superiority back end people feel towards front end. “You’re gonna be a real programmer in no time” lol.
